I suppose it wouldn't be that difficult to put a manifold on a surface plate and with the help of a knee, use a height gage to get something accurate enough.

Typical method for measuring \-----------/
would be part sitting flat and use 2 dowels..... 0\-----------/0
with know diameters and measure over the outside then a little trig per the known angle (45)......onless you have a couple moldmaker ball-pins

and a CMM.
Otherwise it's going to take you a minute to do all the set-ups accurately and then figuring per plane.
